REVENUE REFORM.
Eighty Members of Congress Favor
Large Reductions.

TOLEDO. O., Dec. 3.--This evenings
Blade published letters from eighty
members of congress. in reply to queries
about revenue reform. Nearly all an
swers admit the necessity of revenue
reduction by from s5O,OOO,OOO to $780,
O00,OO0, but there is great diversity as
to how it is to be effected. The Demo-
cratic revenue refOrmerS strongly urge
the reduction of tariff on all articles that
can be called neceSsaries of life and
generally favor the retention of in
ternal revenue taxes except on tobacco.
Republicans and Randall Democrats, as
a rule. insist upon the retention of tariff
except upon sugar, and advocate the
abolition of nearly all the internal rev.
enue taxation, the most common eXcep-
ton being whisky. More pronounced
protectiOniSts advocate the entire re-
peal of the sugar duty and payment of
bounties to sugar growers. There is a
general expression among the Republic
cans and some Western Democrats in
favor of enlarged expenditures for coast
defenses. new navy, and river and har-
Dor improvements. The postal tele-
graph also has many supporters.

A Black Sheep.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3.-Charles Hannibal
Adams is the name of a young man put
on trial for forgery before Judge Will
hanson to-day. Adams is said to be
member of the distinguished Massachu-
sets family of that name, nephew of
Hannibal Hamlin, of Maine. and a
nephew also of Hon. Charles f. Adams,
of Boston. For the past two or three
months. unknown to his wealthy rela-
tiveS in the East, he has been in Jail
here. \ feeling of shame at his dis
grace is given as the explanation why
he has ref aimed from calling on them.
The police assert that all last summer
merchants were victimiZed out of goods
by means of forged orders. \ messen-
ger boy, oh the strength of one of these
bogus orders, would be given quantities
of goods by storekeeper. who supposed
all the time the goods were to go to an
other merchant whose name was affixed
10 the order. The fOrger, however.
would follow the messenger boy, whom
he had engaged in the first place, and
once outside would dispOSSes him of his
package. \ string of indictments was
returned against Adams, and he was
tried once before on a charge of forging
orders for goods and acquitted.

SCase of Contract.

New YORK, Dec. 3.-An answer was
filed with the United States circuit
court yesterday to the suit brought by
the Northern Central Railroad of Penn
sylvania against the heirs of William
II. Vanderbilt to compel tn EN- to carry
out a contract made by Vanderbilt to
sell to the Northern Central 60 per cent
of the stock of the Beech Creek, Clear
field IL Southwestern railroad, of whose
stock he owned 50per cent. The Beech
Greek road has since been sold by the
sheriff and bought by Vanderbilt's
heirs. They claim that if compelled to
carry out the contract. which was not
signed, it would be unjust, in view of
the fact that proceedings are pending
in the supreme court of Pennsylvania to
prevent the sale.
